    Words cant describe how much I love this show, I can relate so much with the guests that visit and understand the true art behind the music. Mixing is such an amazing art.

    Outstanding show, one of the best! I loved that he took where the industry is going in stride. As in the MP3, mixing with plugins vs: analog. Awesome show guys!

    Tchad Blake is a very inspiring engineer & hUman. I've watched many of his mixing videos & there is so much to learn from him. Thanks for sharing & having Mr. Blake on the show! =)

    I just wanted to thank everyone who makes this web series possible. I just started watching and these talks give me hope. Hope that outside this basement and slamming doors, there's a world full people passionate about music.
    Music is a shelter for me right now, but one day it will be my home. A thousand times Thank you. It means everything. - Andrew

    This is just another great episode. And I mean this with all due respect, but when I watch the ITL's it feels like I'm watching the Bob Ross of audio engineers.

  • @slingerdingkes

    Tchad Blake is a total genius, and has remained consistently great since the 80s. Elvis Costello's Brutal Youth sound still inspires me.

    Love Tchad Blake and great show but Dave, for all the Welsh out there, Wales is not in England... :-)

  • @diegooliveirabenjamin
    @diegooliveirabenjamin Před 10 lety

    Is incredible when the IT is JUST what you need in a given moment. I was working on a Funk Rock track and that technique suited extremely well. Right on Dave P.

  • @sub-jec-tiv
    @sub-jec-tiv Před rokem

    Thanks for this. Deeply loved the stuff he did with Froom like the Suzanne Vega album 99.9. Simply amazing sonic tour de force, almost like a halfway point between Sgt Pepper and Einstürzende Neubauten. Amazing.

    Another great interview. Tchad is always a joy to listen to. I'm putting him on my favorites list right up there with Andrew Scheps & Pensado. Likable smart guys that are good at what they go, humble about it, and happy to share how they work. Great show.

    Another awesome show guys loved the ITL this week gave me something fun to try out but as a Welsh dude born and bred it is my obligation to say Wales isn't in England haha. Look forward to the next show keep up the good work.

  • @EastAcousticCapture
    @EastAcousticCapture Před 8 lety +1

    People need to ask the question:
    what was it like; your progression towards finding the plugin to use? + Generally what's your initial approach to designing a song.

  • @matthewwigley665

    @nikdrown Před 10 lety

    Tchad said a lot of things like having off days and the whole shooting the shit that I have had my fair share experiences with. Makes me feel good about where I am going. Great episode! Oh and "In The Lair" was weirdly spot on with a problem I am having on a song this week. I may have to try that but what can work without having that UA plugin? I don't have it. What might be some other alternatives?

    •  Před 10 lety +1

      Aural Exciter or sort. Distortions as well. I use the Radiator from SoundToys.

  • @conanliquid
    @conanliquid Před 6 lety

    Great info from Tchad as always, what a cat. Wales is in The UK, not England, and lastly, possibly the most awkward interview I have seen on this channel. I am not sure if Pensado had a hang over or if Tchad was just feeling pissed off.

    @robburgess4556 Před 10 lety +4

    Good interview. But whoever is operating Tchad's camera need to back off and leave the thing alone - the constant camera movement is distracting.

  • @juliengrenier91
    @juliengrenier91 Před 10 lety

    Someone understand at 30:51? I try to search sam zam and some other things like this, but nothing come out. Is it a plugin, a microphone?

    • @juliengrenier91
      @juliengrenier91 Před 10 lety

      haha got it, for people searching, it's a plugin that come with protools SANSAMP, I use it already

    Does Dave’s “stuttering” worry anybody else?
    I just know too about dementia and feel like he’s getting worse. I hope not.
    Just st-st -starting words takes a while.
    Or am I full of poop and he’s fine?

    Sad that all these great engineers have just become computer programmers, that make Bad sound! like make Movies on VHS instead of Film>>>the Art is gone.
